Preheat your smoker or grill to 225°F (107°C).
Slice the smoked sausage into 1-inch pieces and arrange them on a clean surface.
Slice the bacon in half to create smaller strips for wrapping.
Step 2: Prepare the Filling
In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and diced jalapeños (if using).
Stir in 1 tablespoon of barbecue rub for added flavor.
Step 3: Assemble the Pig Shots
Wrap each sausage slice with a half-strip of bacon, securing it with toothpicks.
Spoon a small amount of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each bacon-wrapped sausage.
Step 4: Smoke the Pig Shots
Place the assembled pig shots on the smoker or grill, spacing them out so they don’t touch.
Smoke for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the bacon is crispy and the filling is bubbly.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Remove the pig shots from the smoker or grill and sprinkle with the remaining barbecue rub.
Serve immediately, or let cool for a few minutes before enjoying these smoky, cheesy bites!
